“”Anyone hear mccane today? He was actually ok.””

You must have heard a different McCain. The hearing and Comey’s statements were about Russian influences and McCain was talking about Hillary’s emails... You could see the consternation on Comey’s face when he kept trying to steer McCain back to the subject...Couldn’t help but wonder what Outnumbered was going to cover if they got back on the air after the hearing was adjourned - what would Megan McCain think about her dad’s mumblings or would it not come up out of courtesy to his daughter but I don’t think it came on.

“”Sen. John McCain, the last senator to question the former FBI director, pursued a line of questioning connecting the Russian meddling investigation to Hillary Clinton’s emails, leaving much of the public confused.

The Arizona Republican repeatedly juxtaposed Comey’s public announcements about conclusions in the probe of Clinton’s private email server with the ongoing nature of the look into whether there was any Trump campaign collusion with the Kremlin.

“I think there’s a double standard there to tell you the truth,” he said.””

“”What I was trying to get at was whether Mr. Comey believes that any of his interactions with the President rise to the level of obstruction of justice.””

Then that’s what you should have asked, John - even tho’ the question had already been asked by others and answered by Comey. Get to the point or is that impossible in DC?

You are mistaken.

McCain's questions were pertinent, and illustrated a double standard between Comey's handling of Hillary's emails and Trump's conversations. There was nothing confused, either about his question or about the point he was trying to make.
